[LegionOfBrad]

Cheapest test 8fer since 1896.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

broads average dips below 29.

Average at TB now 18.

8th best figures ever by an Englishman.

 

[Zinzan]

And after all that carnage, a glorious stroke from Lyth

 

[Black_Warrior]

Michael Clarke has won 1 out of 14 test matches in England, India and Pakistan (UAE)
Remind me again why Clarke is a great captain and Dhoni and Misbah are lousy captains with their away records?

Oh right, Sir Ian Chappell God Shane Warne said he is a great captain

 

[The Sean]

Amazing how good some English bowling performances have been when 8-15 is "only" 8th best. It would be the 2nd best ever for Australia.

 

[Son Of Coco]

So short of a length is the spot...let's see if we can land one past the stumps.

 

[Midwinter]

i take back my words. lyth's already batted better than the Australians

already equal 5 th highest score

>judging captaincy by W/L record

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Imagine if we dicked them for 40 here...

Please don't arouse me further.

because he loses to win

 

[LegionOfBrad]

1st over no wicket. 2-0

Oz were 10-2

Honours even.

 

[Kirkut]

Are conditions similar to the 2014 Old Trafford Test match?

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Hazlewood doesn't learn.

 

[vic_orthdox]

That's a great sign from Cook.

Two youngsters going for glory balls again.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Are conditions similar to the 2014 Old Trafford Test match?

Nah. TB pitch is much slower.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Yeah both Starc and Haze, quit going for jaffas

 

[Flametree]

How predictable was that first ball from Hazlewood?

Like his supposed prowess against spin, its one of the greatest myths of this generation.

Another Ashes series lost with him in charge, but heh at least he set some funky fields now and then.

 

[Johnners]

Feel like I'm repeating myself, but Haze has been terrible to Cook all series. So many leg stump half volleys.
